What happened in the Ribblesdale Stakes last year?
WARM HEART, who edged out Bluestocking in Listed company at Newbury last time, had the run of the race and turned in a much-improved display to win in this stronger grade over this longer trip. Lumiere Rock, who showed much-improved form back in Group company at Naas (1m2f) last time, almost matched that effort back on a sound surface over this longer trip. Bluestocking, looked likely to be suited by this longer trip and she ran well up in grade, especially as she was denied room at a crucial stage.
